Research project "History of tanks"

middle School of General education №8

Astrakhan-2019

Subject of research: tank building and its development. Objective: to determine the main features, stages and prospects for the development of tanks. Problem research: consideration of the causes of the creation and development of tanks. Object of study: the causes affecting the development and creation of tanks.

The origin of the name "Tank“

the name "tank" comes from the English word tank ("tank" or "tank", "tank").

The first Tank

Many scientists believe, that Leonardo da Vinci invented the first tank. It was a wooden "box« on wheels with loopholes for shooting.

The First experiments

In the early 1900s, armored cars appeared in the armies of Great Britain, France, Germany and Russia.

First difficulties

Low speed 6.4 km / h, thin armor, low permeability, weak engine. For the tank required a special engine.

Tank Model 1, Tank-Mark I

The first tank was a 28-ton tracked vehicle with anti-bullet armor with a thickness of 5 to 12 mm. A 105 hp carburetor engine, taken from a civilian tractor, ensured a maximum speed of 6.4 km / h for the tank.

Tankettes and their modifications were actively built. designs of amphibious and even air transport tanks.

Improving weapons: 1. transition to powerful guns of 140 mm caliber; 2. The creation of technologies that allow to achieve the initial velocity of the projectile in 4000-5000 m / s.

Improving protection: 1. improvement of passive armor; 2. improvement of dynamic and active protection systems; 3. the development of various systems of jamming, other means to deal with high-precision weapons.

Improving the internal construction.

Improving the control system in battle through the use of computer networks.
